In the latest version 2014.1.318 (and even the latest internal build 2014.1.321), I am having issues in the view.init event.  I've created this sample to show the issue.

Inside the view init event, I tie a double-click event handler to the kendo grid using jquery, and use that event to route the SPA to a details page.  When using the latest version, nothing happens. If I roll back to the 2013.3.1119 version, it works seemingly fine.

Thanks.

Hello Robin,

Thank you for contacting us. This is a known regression we introduced in this version - we are about to address it and release an internal build - most probably tomorrow.
